US Announces $144 Million In Aid Money Will Go To Afghanistan(NOT the tall-ee-bahn)

The U.S. announced it will provide an additional $144 million in aid to Afghanistan as part of efforts to help citizens in the country in a statement by Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday.

The assistance brings the total amount of aid to Afghanistan to $474 million in 2021, making the U.S. the top aid donor to the country out of any nation, the statement wrote.

Blinken said the aid would provide “lifesaving protection, food security support, essential health care, winterization assistance, logistics, and emergency food aid” to those suffering the effects of “healthcare shortages, COVID-19, drought, malnutrition, and the impending winter.”

His statement emphasized the aid would benefit the “people of Afghanistan,” not the Taliban, and he said the U.S. would hold the country’s new rulers “accountable for the commitments they have made.”

Uh, okay blinkin'. Guessing the money will be clearly marked "NOT FOR USE BY TALIBAN!" But, since it is supposedly going to WHO and UNICEF and UNHCR everything will be above board and transparent. We all know the u.n. can be trusted right?

Right. The money will be going directly to the Afghan people and the Taliban won’t have any access to it. Who is stupid enough believe that?

Oh, good grief! That's like believing in the Tooth Fairy.

What a joke. Afghanistan IS Taliban.

Day said “the U.S. would hold the country’s new rulers ‘accountable for the commitments they have made.’”

Yeah, he will send them a sternly worded letter if they don’t. Or maybe he will threaten to send back “educators” to teach their girls and women full-blown woke gender and queer studies.

Yes, it’s going to the taliban. The taliban is in control of the country. Even IF the taliban uses that money for food, and new prayer rugs, it’s money the taliban doesn’t have to spend on food and prayer rugs that it can spend on machetes for cutting necks.

No wonder the fake pope loves the decrepit old fool! They both hate the USA.

Why doesn’t the Taliban’s new best friend, China, come up with an aid package? Oh, that’s right because China doesn’t give up something for nothing like the Dems here.

“Will the money be delivered in cash on pallets?”

Who’s going to pick it up. Anyone making themselves available to the Taliban (Al Queda) government is exposing themselves to immediate beheading.

“the U.S. would hold the country’s new rulers ‘accountable for the commitments they have made.’”

They just never learn. This is a militant jihad religious group that determine success by dying for their god. They haven’t kept to there word for centuries. Liberals are not on the top of the food chain.

A billion here, a billion there and first thing you know, our taxes are blown out because of the trillions the billions add up to.

This is just a Brandon farce.
